He and Thomas are the best!
Dr Parks listened to my questions and concerns. Explained all the things I could expect, and was willing to address my concerns.
Best ! Highly recommend .
I waited in the waiting room for 65 minutes past my appointment time then another 53 minutes in the exam room. I saw 1 doctor for 2 minutes and Dr Parks for ~5 minutes for a total of 2 hours and 5 minutes. Unacceptabe.

Always friendly and very knowledgeable. Answered all of my questions, to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Dr. Parks.
